OnePlus takes a shot at the new iPhone

Apple launched their new iPhone this week. Actually, they launched two versions, the iPhone 6 and the iPhone 6 Plus. Immediately, Android manufacturers and fans made it clear that Apple was a little late to the game, and now, the self proclaimed Android ‘flagship killer’ has taken their shot, here is the photo that OnePlus put together.

We’ve seen these sorts of comparisons before, usually pitting the OnePlus One against the flagship Android devices that it was designed to compete with. As we walk through one spec after the next, similarities present themselves. As they should, considering the exact same parts were used to produce the One and many Android flagships.

Apple, on the other hand, uses different parts than many Android devices. While we’ll have to wait to see the iPhone in action, as their 64-bit architecture and OS optimization promises to produce the same, or better, overall performance than typical Android powered devices with quad-core processors and 2 or 3GB of RAM.

Let’s close out with the clincher that has been true in almost every OnePlus One comparison, storage space and price.

Apple will offer the iPhone 6 models with 16GB, 64GB and 128GB version and the OnePlus One is also available with 64GB for $349. The kicker here is the need for a contract to get the iPhone.

There you have it, OnePlus is happy to welcome, or mock, Apple for finally making it to the “Plus” game. What do you think, which Plus is the better phone?
